The Rational Response Squad is a group of atheist activists who impact society by changing the way we view god belief. This site is a haven for those who are pushing back against the norm, and a place for believers of gods to have their beliefs exposed as false should they want to try their hand at confronting us.

There's no lesson in either. You can't learn your lesson if you don't exist, and there's no point to a lesson if you can't apply it because you learned it in hell, where you will stay forever.

Unless you believe in reincarnation. Then you really could learn your lesson.

Only if you get into a form that can actually use what you've learned.

Yah, I mean if you're wicked enough, coming back as something like an insect isn't going to give you the time or ability to redeem yourself. Reincarnation is such a stupid concept.

... so if im evil enough... theres the potential to be reincarnated as something thats near-immortal?

...sweet...

Lol, I'm assuming that's a cockroach joke. If not, you lost me

Cockroach joke? i suppose that does make sense... i was actually reffering to ME, LEARNING about my mistakes, and repenting for them... which wont happen... which means i would need to be nearly immortal for it to have a chance at happening...

Meaning, if i am Evil, i want to be evil, and i like being evil... i would have just manipulated "reincarnation" into giving me immortality (or close to it). This is why i love such supernatural farce... they always have rules that i can manipulate to my use ^_^

Ah gotcha, as in, you'll be in a perpetual state of reincarnation because you'll never improve. That's gotta suck being lunch for some larger creature over, and over, and over again. It would be like hell only instead of pitch forks and fire, there's being wrapped in a web having your insides sucked out as you die, an infinite number of times.

Douglas Adams did something like that in one of the "Hitchhiker's Guide" books. A character named Agrajag, through a series of weird coincidences, kept getting re-born and killed by one of the main characters.

Hmm...

While potentially true... theres 1 thing... I would have to be given a body, a form capable of both good and evil, to ever have a chance at redemption. Putting me in the body of a "fruit fly" or some shit would solve nothing, even by the slightest chance i did see an error in my ways, i would have no way to correct it.

Therefore... a capable body must come into play... and if such a body is capable of evil, then it is capable of enough evil to forever hold me, in that form.

Of course this assumes that god/creation/universal conscious runs on even the slightest thread of logic -_-

I love the "Hypercube" movie (sequel to Cube) where the alpha male character kept killing the soft, nerdy character over and over again because of the different dimensions in the cube allowing more than one representation of the characters to exist. So basically, every time he would run into a different version of that same guy, he would kill him. So funny.
